Don't despair if you're not one of those uber organized parents who had summer all mapped out back in January. There are still some major gems in the Chi-town summer camp crown that have space available. We are thrilled to partner up with Brain Arts Camp for this sponsored post. Got a budding 6-18 year old thespian (or actor for you less erudite types)? Check out Brain Arts Camp at Gorilla Tango.
We've done super fun workshops with them via 826CHI and highly recommend their creative, child led approach to mounting an entire show from scratch each camp week. Only one session is full as of this posting, but you might want to hutch-a-moley once we leak the word. We'll be sending our own son to Brain Arts Camp and highly recommend it! Thanks to Brain Surgeon Theater for cutting us a discount on tuition for publicity. Barter system rocks.
A good friend of ours went to Brain Arts Camp two years ago and LOVED it. We got to see her impressively awesome final show. Last summer she tried more of a mainstream theatre camp with a mega award winning company and she found that Brain Arts was better! This year she's back with the little guys.
Here's the scoop:
Brain Surgeon Theater's unique Experiential Theater Arts camp invites kids and teens ages 6-18 to bring their energy, imagination, and ideas to help us create an unusual and spectacular play for a very special performance on the last day of camp!
New this year -- movie making camp & an acting intensive! Kids will spend mornings working alongside professional Chicago theater artists as they write, rehearse, and perform an original play from scratch; afternoons will focus on fun skill-building workshops including scenic and costume design, voice, movement, and dance. No experience is necessary to participate. Space is limited to 15 campers - contact us today to reserve your spot for the next session!
